The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 127 Where does this road lead?

They walked through a dark corridor and came to another closed door. Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie looked at each other and could see the curiosity and expectation in each other's eyes. Mo Shaoxie used a layer of internal force to easily push open the stone door. A strong golden light instantly surged out, making it almost impossible for them to open their eyes.

When their eyes adjusted to the sudden bright light, the sight before them left them dumbfounded.

This secret room is filled with gold, shining brightly like a golden ocean.

The gold was presented in various forms, some were cast into gold bars, some were made into gold ingots, and looking at the gold coins scattered on the ground, each piece of gold was shining and gleaming with an attractive luster.

Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie looked at each other, their eyes filled with complicated emotions.

As the regent, Mo Shaoxie had naturally seen a lot of wealth, so it was not surprising.

But Shangguan Ziling was different. It was the first time she had seen such a mountain of gold.

"Wow, master, you have made a fortune, quickly put it into the space, put it into the space," said the little fat boy while dancing in the space.

Although the leader of the Chongshan Sect is the leader of the martial arts world, his wealth is really too exaggerated.

Mo Shaoxie narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strong desire to explore surged in his heart. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner shock. Then, he turned to look at Shangguan Ziling and said in a deep voice: "It seems that after returning, I will ask the secret guards to carefully investigate this Chongshan Sect." His tone revealed an unquestionable firmness and decisiveness.

Shangguan Ziling nodded in agreement. She was also curious and puzzled about the source of Chongshan Sect's wealth.

Shangguan Ziling waved her hand gently, and an invisible force seemed to surge in the air. Then, the gold in the secret room began to rise slowly into the air as if summoned. They rolled in the air, shining with dazzling light, as if a golden storm was unfolding. Finally, all the gold gathered into a huge golden sphere, which slowly disappeared into Shangguan Ziling's palm.

As the gold disappeared, the light in the secret room suddenly dimmed. The space that was originally filled with golden light became empty, with only some scattered objects and dust left.

Although Mo Shaoxie knew Ling'er's space, he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this scene.

Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling's hand and walked out of the empty secret room. They continued along the corridor and came to the door of another secret room. This door was heavier and more solid than the previous one, with complex patterns and runes carved on it, as if it contained some mysterious power.

Mo Shaoxie pushed open the door, and a cold breath hit him. This secret room was completely different from the previous one, full of mystery and oppression. The walls were covered with thick moss, and the air was filled with a smell that was a bit unpleasant.

The two walked into the secret room, and a cold and desolate atmosphere hit them. Compared with the previous secret rooms, this one seemed empty, with nothing in it. Shangguan Ziling said "Huh", showing a slightly surprised expression, and said, "Nothing?"

Mo Shaoxie heard this and went forward to check carefully. He looked around with a sharp gaze, not missing any details. He touched the wall with his hands, feeling the cold stone surface, and at the same time paid attention to whether there were any abnormalities on the ground and ceiling. However, after a careful observation, he did not find any obvious mechanism or clues.

Shangguan Ziling also stepped forward to help check. She squatted down and carefully checked the ground and corners.

Shangguan Ziling's eyes were as sharp as a falcon, looking for possible traces or mechanisms. She gently knocked on the wall with her hand, listening to the changes in the echo, trying to determine whether there was a mystery behind the wall. However, after some effort, she also did not find any valuable clues.

The two looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness and confusion in each other's eyes.

Just when the two were at a loss, Shangguan Ziling's hand accidentally touched the stone wall beside her. She didn't care and just subconsciously retracted her hand. However, at this moment, she suddenly felt empty under her feet and her body fell down involuntarily.

"Ah!" Shangguan Ziling screamed, her hands flailing, trying to grab something to steady herself. However, there was nothing around except the hard stone wall. She only had time to see Mo Shaoxie's horrified eyes and outstretched hand, and then she fell headfirst into the dark abyss.

"Ling'er," Mo Shaoxie didn't have time to think, he jumped up and followed him.

After a while, Mo Shaoxie grabbed Shangguan Ziling's hand, pulled her into his arms, and said in a nervous voice: "Ling'er, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Shangguan Ziling felt his warm embrace, her heart calmed down, and she said "hmm".

Mo Shaoxie hugged Shangguan Ziling tightly, trying to reduce their falling speed. The air around them rushed past their ears, bringing bursts of sharp whistling sounds.

In the darkness, Mo Shaoxie could only rely on instinct and feeling to adjust his posture and direction. He tried to stay calm and tried to find a place to gain leverage or a way to slow down his descent. However, this abyss seemed to be bottomless. They kept falling, but there was no sign of hitting the bottom.

As time passed, the two finally fell to the ground with a bang. Mo Shaoxie groaned, obviously having suffered a great impact.

Shangguan Ziling quickly climbed up from him and asked with concern: "Mo Shaoxie, are you, are you okay?" Her voice was filled with obvious nervousness and worry.

However, she did not wait for Mo Shaoxie's response, which made her a little panicked.

It was dark here, and she couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly. She immediately thought of bringing herself and Mo Shaoxie into the space. However, she found that her consciousness could not enter the space, as if it was blocked by an invisible force.

She tried calling out to Fatty, but got no response.

Shangguan Ziling frowned, her heart full of doubts and uneasiness. She had always been able to enter the space freely, why did she lose this ability now? Was there something wrong with the space? Or was there something isolating her space?

At this moment, Mo Shaoxie slowly sat up. Although he looked a little embarrassed, he was not seriously injured.

Shangguan Ziling couldn't see him clearly, so she instinctively touched his wrist and took his pulse. Only after confirming that he was fine did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Mo Shaoxie hugged her and said, "Ling'er, how are you? Are you okay?" Although his voice sounded a little tired, it revealed a firm strength.

Shangguan Ziling patted his chest lightly and said sullenly, "I'm fine. You protected me so well. Why are you so stupid?"

"cough cough"

Shangguan Ziling asked nervously, "What's wrong? Did I hurt you?"

"Hehe, Ling'er, just kiss me, and I'll be fine."

"Shame on you! Where is this place?" Shangguan Ziling's voice sounded unusually clear in the darkness, revealing a hint of uneasiness.

Mo Shaoxie took out a fire starter from his arms. He blew gently to light the fire starter. A flickering flame lit up in the darkness, dispelling the darkness around him.

As the fire lit up, they could vaguely see a long road ahead. This road seemed to lead to an unknown distance, full of mystery and unknown. On both sides of the road were towering stone walls, covered with mottled marks and mosses, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

Mo Shaoxie raised the fire stick in his hand and illuminated the road ahead.

Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling in his arms and carefully set foot on this mysterious road, taking every step with extreme caution. The air around them was filled with a cold and damp atmosphere, which made people feel uncomfortable.

They walked along the road, full of curiosity and expectation. Where did this road lead to?
